is it really "the city of love" or "the capital of fashion" as they say? for me it was...what about you, all the others out there?

I have been to Paris about 5 times now. It is actually a very great city, but lately I have noticed that the streets are really dirty, and inhabitants are not so gentle any more.

I'm not sure...I went there as a trip to celebrate the end of exams with the rest of my year in school. I loved the trip itself, even though it was very tiring, and the views and monuments and everything were beautiful...it really was great getting to see places and people and sights I'd never experienced before. However, people were very rude (and in one case, frightening and voilent towards a friend in an elavator), and everything was incredibly expensive. Then again, I was in Paris for the sightseeing, Disneyland for a daytrip and we stayed in the outskirts or the city, so I guess the expense and rudeness could be due to the rush hustle and bustle...and obviously because tourists like the city, things will be expensive. Not made my mind up about the place.

Well I went when I was in 10th grade so it really wasn't all that for me. I had fun being in a different country and seeing all the things that most people only read about. Being in 10th grade and not really caring about the fashion or love for that matter it didn't feel that way for me. Instead I was there really for the history, since I was a history geek in high school and still.

It's a very dirty city. The inhabitants aren't as rude as they're usually made out to be, but they're nowhere near as friendly as if you're further south, somewhere like Bordeaux. It's also more expensive than London or Rome. On the other hand, it is very beautiful.
